nomenclature updates
12NOV2026
The genes on this page have been renamed, changing from prkcdl protein kinase C delta type-like (gene 1) , to prkcql, protein kinase C theta type-like gene 1. This change was enacted to resolve naming comflicts across the 50 or so protein kinase genes in Xenopus. An protein seq based COBALT tree, put the the X. laevis loci genes solidly in the theta-like clade, not the delta-like clade, though there really isn't that much between them, and note that the X.laevis genes seem to be almost identical paralogs/duplicates, and the Xtrop protein is of too low quality to resolve or change ( so was omitted from the tree) and is staying out for now. Ongoing analysis may result in more changes or models moves.
